Choosing the right kitchen layout isn't always a question of taste. Personal preferences sometimes clash with the size or shape of the room.

When to Use "Galley" (Linear) Kitchen Layout

Linear Kitchen Layout "Galley" (Linear) kitchen layout - only one wall used for the working area. Consider "Galley" (Linear) kitchen layout if the kitchen is very narrow. It is better to reserve just one wall for the working area of the kitchen because the rest of the room will remain open for easy movement. If the furnished area seems not enough you can always increase it vertically using practical wall or suspended units.

When to Use "2 Galley" (Railroad) Kitchen Layout

Galley Kitchen Layout "Galley" kitchen layout - same principle as linear kitchen layout but with furniture built up along two parallel walls. Consider "2 Galley" (Railroad) kitchen layout if the kitchen is wide but not particularly long. One of the walls will be dedicated to the "working" part of the kitchen (washing and cooking areas). The other wall can become a convenient area for preparing meals. The center of the room will stay free for easy movement between the two sections.

When to Use Peninsula or Island Kitchen Layout

Peninsula or Island Kitchen Layout Peninsula or Islandkitchen layout is the ideal choice for anyone who wants to have an area for eating a quick snack or who simply wants an additional place to prepare food.

Peninsula kitchen layout is always modern and captivating and doesn't disrupt a classic corner arrangement. It is important to leave enough space for people to pass by easily and to sit down (a passage of 90 to 110 cm). Availability of space is even more important for an island kitchen layout: located in the center of the room it goes well with a linear arrangement of kitchen and adds to a modern composition.

When to Use L-shaped (Corner) Kitchen Layout

Corner Kitchen Layout L-shaped (Corner) kitchen layout is ideal if you decide to place the table in the center of the room. L-shaped (Corner) kitchen layout is also the best if you have a kitchen which opens without dividing walls onto the dining or living room. The corner where the kitchen furniture will be installed should always be that which is opposite the dining room.

When to Use U-shape (Horseshoe) Kitchen Layout

Horseshoe Kitchen Layout U-shape (Horseshoe) kitchen layout - three side arrangement. U-shape (Horseshoe) kitchen layout might be the ideal choice if your space is large enough to creatively furnish without worrying about problems of dimensions. The table stays in the center, food preparation and conservation are distributed to the two parallel sides while washing and cooking share the internal side.
